We all have weird quirks that are fairly uncommon, to say the least. For the fear of being judged, we keep these weird things to ourselves; however, that doesn't stop us from being curious about what others have to hide.
So, to indulge in this secret knowledge, X (formerly Twitter) user @drakesbrother started a thread asking people to share their bad habits, weird confessions, and interesting things they do. The thread was quickly flooded with the strangest habits.
Turns out, lots of us have funny habits that make perfect sense to us but might seem odd to others. Something like when someone has to read the last page of a book before they can start it from the beginning. One thing’s clear: what seems like quirky habits to some of us is just another day in the office for others.
Some confessed to measuring how long something will take in songs, others said that each time they get in their car, they make sure no one is sitting in the back seat. While some of these weird things to do sound a little bit odd, let’s not pretend you don't relate.
Scroll below for the list of confessions from regularly weird people, and don't forget to share your own strange habits in the comments.

Saving The Best For Last
Measuring Time In Songs
Impulsive Thoughts About Babies
This is incredibly common. Everyone does this, actually. Intrusive thoughts. I tend to think “how much can I key this car”.
Conversations With Myself
My girlfriend does this a lot. I end up answering her and she just replies "nobody is talking to you, talking to myself. mind your own business." LOL
Must-Shut-Everything For Sleep
Beating The Microwave Countdown
I have to stop the microwave 1 second before it stops so it wont do the annoying beeps at the end
Scenario Rehearsing In My Head
Precise Volume Setting
Keeping The Mind Busy
Knowing The Tune, But Not The Words
Solo Work Satisfaction
One Earbud Awareness
Silence Sounds Loud
Safety Scenario Strategist
Pause To Check For Intruders
this is like driving with loud music, but then turning the volume down to look for parking or for an address.
The Cool Side Of The Pillow
When I was 4 in Florida we had no A/C in our house. I had 6 spots on my pillow that I could move my head around on until I had to flip it & have 6 more.
Imagining Unlikely Scenarios
Phone Privacy Panic
I do have things to hide, and my reaction is the same... I mean... dude, that's my phone, it's sacred
Contemplating Mortality
Backseat Safety Check
Holding Breath To Dodge Germs
Flashlight Fears
Soothing Myself With A Foot Rub
Bridge-Speeding For Safety
Floor Over Bed
Imaginary Bets For Big Decisions
That's pretty high stakes for just trying to hit the trash can with some garbage. Go big I guess.
Living Out Loud In My Imagination
I used to do that, now I've learned to be more discreet (unless I'm in nature, then you can let go)

Does anyone else feel guilty or like a criminal when walking out of a store without buying anything? :)
I do every time. And when I pass a cop. Even if I’m completely innocent!

when I bang something with another object I will almost always say “Ow” even though it didn’t touch or hurt me.
I sometime ask my husband a question about a conversation I have been having in my head. He looks at me weird and I realize he did not hear the first part. I apologize and then fill him in so he can answer the question.
You are not alone, my boyfriend does that. We got used to it... "Have I been talking to you in my head again?"
